Q&A | Kelsey Sheofsky of Shelter Co.

I have a real adoration and respect for entrepreneurs, especially when you can tell they are following their passion. Kelsey Sheofsky of the just-launched Shelter Co., is doing just that, and so beautifully too. Shelter Co. is a pop-up lodging service in California that caters to groups seeking the great outdoors for everything from a wedding, to a retreat, to a good night's sleep. With dreamy European canvas tents and all the camping necessities (hand axes, food) and necessary luxuries (bourbon, s'mores, flowers by Danielle Rowe) you'd want when getting off the grid. You had me sold at axe.

If not in San Francisco, I would live in...a few different spots. Every time I travel I get the relocation bug until I return home. Right now Tulum, New Orleans, Vancouver, Barcelona, and New York are at the top of the list of places I think I could embrace for a good while. But my heart will always be in San Francisco.

My dream holiday would be to...do the classic North American road trip. I've taken trips all over the world but have never dedicated a big enough chunk of time to properly tour my own backyard. I would love to take eight weeks and do it right. Even go up through Canada for a bit and down into Baja.

Music: I've been listening to a lot of Motown and old school hip hop lately. Keeps my energy pumping.

Fashion: This winter I bought a pair of boots that I'm pretty obsessed with. They are Barney's Co-Op and look like normal suede boots in the front but have full glitter in the back. I call them my mullet boots because there's definitely a party going on back there but the front is all business.

My favorite quality in a woman is...honesty, graciousness, a wicked sense of humor.

I'm terrified of...our political system.

My dream car is a...1970's Mercedes SL convertible. Navy blue please.

My cocktail of choice is...tequila or whisky on the rocks. I also love a Greyhound when the juice is fresh.

My celebrity crush is...Jon Stewart.

The beauty product of choice is... drugstore lipstick.

My friends and I like to...drink champagne and banter.

If I could go back in time for one decade it would be...I'd kind of like to be around part way through our evolution. Maybe live among the Neanderthals for 10 years to see what that was all about. Go on a hunt, do some cave painting, try not to die.
